McNair said in the offseason and reiterated after practice Tuesday that the Texans aren’t a candidate to sign Vick.

“No, we don’t have any interest in him,” McNair said. “We’re very happy with the quarterbacks we have.”

Matt Schaub is firmly entrenched as the starter. The coaches believe if he stays healthy he’s got a chance to become an elite player at his position. They like Dan Orlovsky as the backup, and are paying him an average of $3 million a year. They’re excited about Rex Grossman, who signed a one-year deal for the $620,000 minimum, as their third quarterback.
